Désespéré are a duo form Iran that plays a depressive mixture of black, sludge and funeral doom metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "Perpetuus Somnium Mortis" which was released by Ardawahist Kollective.
Sound effects start off the album before going into a heavier funeral doom metal direction while guttural death metal growls can also be heard at times. All of the tracks are also very long and epic in length while the bass guitars take over as a lead instrument on the album and all of the drum beats are also programmed.
The slower riffs also mix in the heaviness of sludge metal while depressive black metal screams can also be heard in certain sections of the recording and the music also mixes in a great amount of elements of that genre. At times the music also gets very atmospheric sounding along with some melodies also being added into some of the riffing, synths can also be heard on a couple of songs and all of the music also sticks to a slower direction.
Désespéré plays a musical style that takes depressive black, funeral doom and sludge metal adn mixes them together to create a sound of their own. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover depression and mental struggles.
In my opinion Désespéré are a very great sounding mixture of depressive black, funeral doom and sludge metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this duo. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Regina Tenebris Profundis" and "Sacra Nocendi Ipsi". 8 out of 10.
